The Flirt200 here is called class X74 due to them being identical to the Norwegian Flirt200s. In Norway they are Type74/BM74, and were also approved for use in Sweden before MTR bought their trains. So now they share the class/type with the Norwegian trains.

Interesting - thanks Simon. I did wonder what MTRX were like after travelling on an SJ regional in the opposite direction last Mon, albeit the long way round via Västerås and Örebro, taking 4h45. I ended up on the SJ one because I couldn't get an Interrail seat reservation on the faster services. Wish I'd paid extra for the MTRx train and got 1h25 of my life back now 😄
@Simon-Andersen2 жыл бұрын
Interrail reservations might be the only reason to take the slow trains, with all the competition from Flix SJ and MTRX is usually possible to get cheap tickets even hours before departure 😀. Hope you had a nice trip 👍
@travelbuzz12 жыл бұрын
@@Simon-Andersen Yes, it was a good trip 👍 I was surprised how comfortable the SJ train was, considering it was meant to be regional. I will check out MTRx next time I'm in Sweden, though.

A note: the first class only offer the free seat next to you if you book the first class plus ticket. But a meal is included in both. J.

great video. Plan to train between Stockholm and Göteborg then either bus or train to Oslo (apparently both take roughly the same amount of time but the train may prove more comfortable). Was the wifi free because i am assuming it was.
@Simon-Andersen6 ай бұрын
Yes the wifi was. Train is definitely more comfortable.

Very nice and I actually believe they operate to Båstad too but Idk where the route starts from
@Simon-Andersen2 жыл бұрын
Yes! I should have remembered to put that in the video, they ran a few services basically as extentions of the services to Båstad in the summer 🌞
